During the course of their relationship, Tori moved from her home city Melbourne to live with Jack on the Gold Coast. After their split Tori told 9Entertainment she had plans to move back to Melbourne but as of November 2025 Tori is still calling the Goldie home.
Tori and Jack's split
Tori and Jack first broke news of their split in March 2025 in a joint statement shared to Instagram alongside a photo of their MAFS Final Vows.
"If you have been following our journey, you know we have always been authentic and true to ourselves. We have invited you in and brought you along for the wild ride," the statement began.
"However, today we come to you with heavy hearts. As of a few weeks ago we have decided to end our romantic relationship. We remain the best of friends and still care for and respect one another deeply."

Previously speaking to 9Entertainment, Tori revealed that as drama-filled as their relationship was on screens, their break-up was "the most boring, normal thing ever".
Explaining the reason behind their split, Tori said: "We just kind of got to a point where we never took that next step of really falling deeply in love with one another."
The pair still lived together for a period of time after their break-up and maintain a strong friendship.
"Nothing has changed other than obviously the intimate relationship. We're no longer boyfriend and girlfriend, that's literally the only change," Tori said at the time.
"We still go to the gym together, we still hang out together."

Tori and Jack's MAFS journey
Tori, 29, and Jack, 35, first met on Season 11 of Married At First Sight.
The pair hit it off at their wedding, but it's no secret that their relationship was far from perfect throughout the experiment.
Early on, Jack declared that there was no "sexual spark" between them, which caused their sex life to become one of the experiment's biggest talking points.
They also faced scrutiny from the other participants who did not believe their relationship was real.

Jack's words during the experiment about his co-stars – from the 'muzzle' comment, followed by a 'whale' comment – made him one of the most controversial grooms of the season, and many doubted their romance would last.

But despite it all, they stuck by each other and continued their relationship after Final Vows with Tori moving from Melbourne to the Gold Coast to be with Jack.
While things didn't work out in the end she couldn't help but look back fondly on her time with Jack.
"Jack and I have had a massive two years. It feels like we've been together for five and we've gone through 10 years worth of life experiences," she smiled.
